Submission Bootcamp at StoryStudio Chicago

The world of publishing stories and essays can be overwhelming and inscrutable. How strong a piece needs to be, what editors look for, how to find the right outlet for your work: there are no shortage of do’s and don’ts.

Demystify the publication process with this 4-week bootcamp on how to get published in literary journals. We’ll cover the major steps: making sure your piece is polished, identifying the best market for your work, and keeping careful track of your submissions.

You’ll write and get feedback on query letters, and talk about best practices when communicating with journals and editors. We’ll also discuss resources that can make the publishing process easier.

The class is perfect for writers who are ready to submit their short stories or essays, or who want to learn about the world of publishing.
